6: ‘Things’ going ‘Bump’ in ‘the Night’ At the place where the polarities are unified — which is a hypercomplexifying and living singularity— whole universes of expressive repercussion arise — each more complete, complex, connective and diverse than ‘that which it was divided from’. Children — universes of dimensions of child-dimensions, emerging ever-more complexly, connectively and completely into themselves — and the ‘new kingdom’ of Matter. Which means ‘Mother’. All of these dimensions are functionally and accessibly* unified — but the transports of this unity are not available to us when we are trapped with only linear models to build bridges with. This is especially true in the terrains of value, shape and meaning that lie just beneath the realms in language we are likely to explore, or in places we would rapidly discard for having the appearance of not being systemizeable. *Meaning they are experientially accessible to us, just as directly as anything else we contact, such as a fork, an idea, or another person. If we were to try to make something that was somewhat like these rings (in schema, rather than in form) we might end up (since we’re sort of stuck with two dimensions — and we might even desire to be) with something like this visual toy, which I refer to as a poe, or point of entrance.   This is an idealized map of a sort of dimension which isn’t one, it’s generative self-reference — whose constant activity it is to express ever-more complex and diverse dimensions of itself. These dimensions immediately involve themselves in what their progenitor was doing — but at new sizes and speeds, as well as in new shapes, forms and ways. This map is not what we may desire to first classify it as or relate it to: it is not a fractal, and it is not a math-toy, and it is not ‘just a pretty image’, either. It ‘doesn’t have anything to do with computers’ in the way we might think it does by looking at it. In other words, to gain access to this map — you must set aside all the maps and labels you are familiar with, or perhaps — see how they all arise from a ‘way of assembling’ meaning, significance, relation and value — that uses ‘a toy something like this’. This is a toyMap of sentient time, — what we experience as biocognitive time — starting at any instant, going forward ‘the same way the fastChild in the Living Waters does’. By toyMap I mean a single instance of a changing schema — in other words, we can make many similar maps like this, each unique yet each in accordance with some aspects of this map’s characters of divisionRelation. It is also a way to teach a logic of perspective-amplification that results in impossible learning. Those who explore it adeptly will discover this themselves, but only if they involve themselves in the actual creation of similar toys — and the generation of ways of relating these toys to how we value metaphoric positions and meaning, especially as regards their domains of ‘authorization’. As a travelToy, we could pose the central figure as ‘the beginning’ — marking travel outward from it as ‘forward in time’. This model, which is only one of many possible similar toys — is an imaginal representation of the repercussive result of the childSuitor’s travel. For humans, it is in fact an impossible learning toy — properly understood, and shared amongst those willing to play with it. It teaches scalarity of perspective — which results in a radically different understanding of and access to the power of metaphor and language. We might don another lens that allows us to see this toy as an image of the schema of our first few instants of complex sentience. The core dot would represent the very first arbitrary ‘amount’ of biocognitive time. In this model, forward in time is ‘toward the smaller domains’ — but the number of domains in which time is emergently expressed (and proceeds) is geometrically multiplying through the result of what seems a truly magical sort of division. With this expansion comes entirely new potentials in local and distant relation. Time, we must reMember, is a biocognitive streamField — its passage and the organismal (and cognitive) experience of it are emergent from many diverse sizes and speeds (and transports and assemblies) of relativity — in any organism, at any scale we may select to observe. It is not a linearly quantifiable dimension at all (except as tool) — it is an emergent result of organismal relation. For each organism, and scale or assembly of organisms — there is an entirely unique temporal universe. Each of these universes is also ‘complete’ in very literal and seemingly impossible way due to the power of the transports and the media to not only conserve source and lineage — but to magnify them profoundly. So as we travel ‘inward’ (toward the small) — we are seeing in our map not only new dimensions of time — emerging at new speeds (due to their size) — but also a seemingly impossible complexification of the number of unique universes of temporal relation. Because each position is a unique timeSizeSpeed expresser/experiencer. Seen from this vantage, the image gains a dimension where depth (toward the small) becomes equivalent to a vast magnification of temporal novelty and relational complexity. Now this is merely a toy of the reality — and an extremely limited one. Yet understanding this not as a product of science, philosophy or math — but as a toy with which we can examine how our own sentience is and has been assembled leads to some rather shockingly illuminative domains of direct cognitive experience. So our image is a rePresentation; ‘a shaving of a highlight’ that results in a diagram that is perhaps a bit more akin with what we would think of as an algorithm (yet it is more about meaning than abstracts). In exploring it we can ‘see directly’ that ‘growing smaller’ can be a very fast way to ‘get impossibly bigger’. Organismal life is elementally connective with and biocognitively aware of this feature of potential. We might even say that ‘large portions’ of the way Life accomplishes its various dimensions of miracles are comprised of specific characters of the potentials for embodiment — of something a lot like the toy below. So our toy is a playful map of an impossible ‘thing that comes before’ metaphor. Organisms don’t use it to think — they use it to capitalize upon death for the sake of an eternal protomedia which is profoundly enriched by their emergence and complexification (relation) in the domain of ‘manifestation’ or matter-energy. Most organismal activity arises in service of invisible goals — and this is a result of something akin to an alien technology: a technology cognitive lifeForms use to solve problems, and also to embody impossible momentum — to make manifest that which is not only impossible to begin, but impossible to sustain: complexly translocal biosentience. An organismal hyperstructure, comprised of biocognitive elements, alike with itself in that each one, at its scale, complexity and speed is a complete local representation of the entirety of the unity. Unity of what? Why, of everything, anywhen.     This image represents a gesture, not an abstraction — it is a way of moving such that the distance traversed and inhabited increases (impossibly) with any movement in any position. There is way to do something akin to this with language, learning, human interaction, and any form of relation with almost anything — at all. But it’s more of a game than a science...in this game... a child’s eye rules... there are also some key stories and elements of toyRelation that will aid us in rapidly establishing direct experience of this, whereupon we may discard all toys, experts and theories almost entirely. In this model, the whiteSpace is ‘The Living Waters’ and the structure is the direction of elaborative movement of the unityBeing. The rather confusingly amazing thing about this is that the entire structure grows 3 times faster in 3 times more dimensions 3 times sooner than it did last time. This would be an image (in our toy) of something akin to a few trillionths of a picosecond after the ‘big bang’. By now the ‘poe’ is growing so fast that the idea of lightspeed is almost frozen stiff in comparison. And it’s growing in and as — us. o:O:o These images are not merely pretty pictures however. If you build one yourself, you will begin to see what I am talking about. One way in which they are not pretty pictures is that they can be used as a form of map that allows you to examine an extremely wide variety of processes you may encounter. For example, if we imagine colors to relate to character-features and size to meaning value, we can use it to craft a playful model of a metaphor, something like this:   Now the really interesting thing about this is that one way to get to a token is by freezing and breaking ‘something like a poe’. But a frozen snapshot of a broken poe is nothing like what it claims to be — when presented as knowledge. These are just the first five steps. And there are no end of inward steps, and no end of upward ‘scales’ above, either. And the whole thing is moving. The most useful thing to notice is that when you take humans, and give them a toy that breaks and freezes something to produce something they find exciting — they start getting excited about breaking and freezing things. This single feature of our sentience has been like a sword stuck in the head of our species for thousands of years. The problem is malevolently difficult to spot, because the way it evolves erases itself. But there is an easy way to teach and learn something that resolves it together. It’s a game that teaches us the power of unfreezing our knowledge potentials, and re-including some of the stuff we consider ‘animalian’ about ‘what we are’. Animals and cells have metaphors too. They just don’t call them things. They simply don’t name stuff. And this means a lot less freezing, and breaking... which leaves a whole lot of energy for something else.
